A single model scale challenges the flexibility of a production retrieval system: some settings need it faster, others need a smaller index, and the right trade-off changes with the workload. In the context of information retrieval (IR), a transformer-based model can be made smaller in three ways---using fewer layers,...

VerTox: Verifiable Reward-Guided Corpus Poisoning Against Neural Ranking Models

This work proposes VerTox, the first framework to formulate corpus poisoning as a verifiable reward-guided reinforcement learning (RLVR) problem, and produces adversarial documents that frequently rank higher than target documents across major neural ranking architectures, as well as a proprietary commercial embedding...
